When it’s time to get your Mercury Cougar in better shape, we’re here to ensure you and your car are well cared for. We believe that high standards of excellence and a commitment to honesty separate the best auto repair shops from the rest. You can trust your 1988 Mercury Cougar to Firestone Complete Auto Care.

When it comes to brake repairs, your safety is of utmost importance. Even if you’re a careful driver, Mercury Cougar brake problems can quickly create a dangerous situation while you’re driving. If you notice shaking when you depress your brake pedal, noise from your brakes, increased stop distance, or a brake light that’s lit up on your dashboard, don’t wait to have your brakes inspected and repaired. No matter how reliable your Mercury Cougar is, it'll need brake repair at one point or another. Brake pads and parts naturally wear out over time. Climate and driving style can also accelerate the repair timeline.

Tire problems are another one you don't want to let linger. Tire damage can inhibit your ability to maintain control of your vehicle and stay safe while driving. If you have a flat tire on your 1988 Mercury Cougar, we can change it for you. In some cases, our technicians may be able to repair a Mercury Cougar tire with the appropriate plug and patch. More often than not, punctures in the tread area that are less than ¼ inch in diameter can be successfully repaired. If a repair isn’t safe for your particular tire situation, a technician can answer any questions you have when choosing a tire replacement that suits your vehicle and your budget. We may also recommend an alignment or balancing when you have a tire repair since tire damage can impact other 'around the wheel' parts.

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care is also equipped to handle many 1988 Mercury Cougar transmission, drivetrain, and engine repairs. These systems all have hundreds of integrated parts that use friction to create energy and keep your car running. These parts are moving anytime your car is running, so over time, they can take on significant wear and tear. You might experience shifting delays, engine knocking, or a burnt smell coming from underneath the hood of your Cougar. With these symptoms, it’s best to bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care to diagnose the problem. In these cases, the repair could range from something minor, like a new spark plug, to a more significant repair, like a fuel pump fix.
